Kuehler (elbow) allowed two runs on five hits and struck out three over three innings Saturday against High-A Asheville. He didn't factor into the decision.
Kuehler has been given a clean bill of health after undergoing Tommy John surgery late in 2024. He hasn't worked beyond High-A in his brief professional career, and he'll aim to continue his development with the Emperors to begin the 2026 campaign.
